Akanksha Chamola, who essays the role of Manvi, reflected on how Baisakhi became a cherished tradition in her life after marriage. She shared “Baisakhi is a festival that marks the arrival of the harvest season, and I’ve celebrated it since I got married to my husband Gaurav. It was definitely something new for me, but it’s been an amazing experience being a part of the customs.”
She further said, “My husband and I visit the Gurudwara in the morning for Langar Sewa—a chance to give back to the community and soak in the festive atmosphere. That’s not it, we used to host a family kirtan with my in-laws at our house, followed by a delicious meal that included Punjabi Kadhi Pakoda, Rice, and Dal Makhani, among others. It’s a joyful time that represents new beginnings. Happy Baisakhi to everyone!”
